    Morton.

    Allsop

    Seri played 95% of his passes needlessly backwards, many of which put us under pressure.
    Vinagre had 68 million chances to whip one in the box and did it once.

    I counted 3 times, but they were all minutes before his substitution. He should definitely do it more, as two of them nearly resulted in goals!

    Connolly - His tenacity and workrate is brilliant to watch
    Allsop - I was extremely underwhelmed when we replaced Darlow with him. How wrong I was.
    Morton - Gives our midfield the steel we've been lacking

    Puzzled by the Vinagre criticism , yes he had spaces to cross but took the full back on , but he’s played in systems where you work the play like City are doing like he learnt in Portugal , once you put a cross in from 25 yds near the wing it’s 60/40 defenders ball usually plus a quick counter unless you’ve got Joe Royle , Andy Gray or shearer in there , we don’t ! iI’d rather him work space and play the Jaden pass to Connolly .

    Five points for first choice, three for second, one for third.

    Allsop 101
    Connolly 87
    Morton 84
    Philogene 22
    Seri 9
    Traoré 1
    Christie 1


    Allsop is now played 2, won 2. What a start for the poor man's Karl Darlow.

    Votes heavily concentrated across the top 3 with much less of a spread than most games this season.

    Consequently there is now no player who has gained votes in every league game MOTM. Coyle was always going to lose that accolade but Greaves' and Slater's runs have also come to an end.

    I was working so never saw the full game so I can’t vote, but one thing’s for sure, if this Rosieball team do sort out their home form out my 80/1 bet for us winning the league might just have a chance. I think we’re probably well and truly above the radar now though!

    Was thinking though, IF (big if) we continue our improvement, really good January window, long overdue good luck with injuries, etc etc, maybe just maybe it could look something like Leicester, Leeds, Us?
    Leicester look nailed on to me. Southampton, who some thought would walk it, seem to be really struggling. Not sure Preston and Ipswich will stay up there
    We might finally see ourselves and TWS in the Premier League together.

    We just need to stamp ourselves on games more, think the addition of Morton will help. We are a top away team atm, not sure we have the authority in games to be consistently good for a full season, TWT of course but just my opinion on where we are at. That being said I think if we continue winning it’ll happen naturally as teams will sit back more giving us more opportunity to dominate games.
